To show our ambition to contribute to the energy transition and to continue to enable increased electrification of Sweden, we aim to distribute twice as much electricity in our electricity network by 2030 and to transmit electricity with 99.99% delivery reliability.

• Representing the program as a project sponsor and agent in contracts
• Leading both the program team and the steering group
• Being a key person in developing our way of working within program management

The role involves broad contact with both internal and external parties - customer dialogues and collaboration are a natural part of your everyday life.

You are a natural relationship builder who brings others along with you through clear communication, responsiveness and committed leadership.

You collaborate effectively across boundaries and know that success in the program is based on close interaction with both the team and other parts of the business.
